you design the next dbd chapter, what do you pick?
Can be original or licensed, you pick the killer, survivor(s), legendaries, etc
For me it would absolutely be a second Stranger Things chapter. Robin and Hopper as survivors, Eddie and Joyce legendaries for Nancy and Steve, Vecna killer. Hopper's perks would be based around how he is DBD's "tank", so to speak, and Robin's would be based around her intelligence.
Comments
ALIENS.
Killer : Xenomorph
Survivors : Ellen Ripley, Corporal Hicks
Map : the colony from the 1986 ALIENS movie.
Evil mage/sorcerer.
They have long velvet robes, glowing green eyes, crimson hair and can switch between male and female.
Their m1 ability shoots out a small lance made of ice.
Their M2 ability is to summon a meteor that they can place in front of them kind of like how the Doctors add on that changes his shock to a ring, but with a bit more control.
They won’t walk but rather float like nurse.
Their secondary ability decreases the temperature of the map By summoning a blizzard. It slows down survivor movement speed while making the ground slippery, making traversal difficult because you’ll slip and slide in the wrong direction. This will end of survivors find the four runes that power the storm and erase them. (Probably too processor intensive to ever make it in the game 😩)
Aliens
Killer: xenomorph
survivors: ellen ripley
I pick to not release a new map for the next x chapters and instead slowly but surely rework my last 5 maps.
License:
Original:
Toy Story, Zurg as killer, Andy and Molly as survivors
Need I say more?
I would easily put Vecna into DBD.
Original:
Alien 👽
Killer: Green Alien
Survivor: Lab Coat Scientist ( 1 Survivor but can be Male & Female like Legion)
Map: Area 51 (half inside, half outside)
Licensed:
Survivor Only: Shaggy from Scooby-Doo
Chapter - Game of Thrones (Yes I know it's not horror)
Killer: White Walker
Survivor: Jon Snow
Alien and Predator:
Two killers : The Alien and The Predator
Surv: Elen Ripley
Darth Vader
Krampus
Werewolf
Carrie
A Vampire
The little girl from The Ring
Blair Witch
Um... Sadako is based off of the original plot that The Ring is inspired from.
You technically already got what you wanted there.
The REAL Nightmare on Elm Street
Bioshock
Killer: Big Daddy with a big bad drill
Survivors: Jack, Elisabeth
Map: crumbling, partially flooded, dilapidated Rapture
One of Elisabeths perks could repair a broken palette or restock a chest(pulling it from another dimension) or better yet reshuffle a tile and give us another RNG version of it.
Double killer/survivor chapter: Alien + Alien: Isolation
Killer 1: Xenomorph
Killer 2: Working Joe
Survivor 1: Ellen Ripley
Survivor 2: Amanda Ripley
Ellen would bring a pet/companion perk ‚Jones‘, which will spawn the cat in the match, simple AI, staying in a radius around surv, when in chase Jones runs around and creates distracting scratch marks
Amanda brings a perk similar to Flash Bang, but with a smoke bomb
Slenderman or The Thing probably.
I always wanted a Gardener as a Killer.
And his Power are Seeds that he can put anywhere.
You could probably get pretty Creative with them but one idea would be that you can use them as a Manually Activated Trap.
Imagine it like Freddys Snares but Survivors can't see them. And when a Survivor walk over them you can activate them from a Distance and they Damage the Survivor.
Or you can Place the Seeds at Loops and the Block Windows or Pallets from being used.
Or you can use them to grow over Generators and Survivors have to get rid of the Plant surrounding it to work on Gens
And the last idea is, that you have a Scythe and there is already Plants around the Map. The Killer can collect the Plants and gain a Power from doing so. But Survivors are also able to destroy the Plants and gain little Pebble Seeds from them they can use to distract the Killer.
either Darkest Dungeon or Metroid Dread
nothing would be more terrifying then being chased by a Shambler or E.M.M.I
Me trying to make BhVR make a bioshock chapter with a big daddy, while also having big sisters as a cosmetics for a killer, knowing full damn well they’ll pick Columbia over Rapture (I just want an aquatic map)
The Hecate
Three ancient Grecian statues possessed by malevolent spirits.
Upon spawning, two other statues will spawn 12 meters either side of you.
Primary power: Liminal Gaze
Hold the power button and see phantom images from the perspectives of the other two statues, enabling you to see three different parts ofthe map at once. Press the attack button while the power button is held to switch control to another Hecate statue. Statues can be repositioned around the map to set up traps, cut off loops, lock down doorways, etc. and can be switched to with a short cooldown of 6 seconds. You do not slow down when holding the power button, but the action is telegraphed via animation.
Secondary power: Union of the Goddess
When 2 or more statues are closer than 8m, the secondary power gauge slowly fills with a minimum of 40 seconds, but 50% faster if all three statues are together. Once complete, and when all three statues are brought to the same location the secondary power can be activated. All three combine into one statue, with a movement speed of 5m/s and 50% increased lunge distance, and you see killer instinct on all survivors. This lasts for 10 seconds, at which point one statue is 'left behind', killer instinct ends, and movement speed drops to 4.8m/s with a 25% increased lunge for a further 10 seconds.
This would be a 'multi-killer' like the Twins, except any of three can function as the 'main' killer at any given time with full function and power, and the strategy of placing the statues is more similar to say Hag's traps or Demo's portals.
While the secondary power is very strong, similar to Legions Frenzy with without the limitation of deepwounds, it takes significant set up that takes away from your primary power, and which survivors can easily anticipate. But this power can itself be used to strategically place statues if you time when you 'leave them behind'.
Perks
Scourge: Key to Tartarus
When a survivor is hooked on a Scourge Hook, as long as you are further than 24 meters from the hook, all generators automatically regress at 200% regression speed. This effect continues for 6/8/10 seconds after the survivor is unhooked or sacrificed.
(A nice, healthy, anti-camping perk, yet could still be a contender for a meta regression perk)
Hex: Light of the Moon
When a survivor blesses a dull totem, they scream revealing their location. The survivor who cleanses or blesses this totem has their aura revealed for 16/18/20 seconds, this time increases to 32/36/40 seconds if the totem was blessed.
(A counter to Boons, and a cool combo Hex to pair up with some others)
Fortunes Crossroads
While the Obsession is injured, all other survivors within 10/12/14m of them suffer from Blindness. While the Obsession is hooked or in the dying state, all survivors within 10/12/14m of them suffer from Blindness and Oblivious. While the Obsession is healthy, their aura cannot be seen.
(Every killer has to have a duff perk or two, so no chance of this being meta, but it's a novel way of using the Obsession)
Killer: a gigantic spoopy spider that can drop down on top of gens. Stealthy. Can lay egg sacs that release small spiders that crawl up people's screens.
Survivor: Uh.
The Thing
Killer: The Thing (duh)
Survivor: RJ MacReady
I've never even seen this movie all the way through, but people have been wanting a killer that morphs into the survivors since the beginning of the game and this would be the perfect killer to do it with
Would 100% do a Phantasm chapter
Killer: The Tall Man
Survivor: Reggie
Survivor: Mike Pearson
Legendary Skin for Mike: Jody Pearson
Tomb Raider (Paragraph Chapter)
Survivor: Lara Croft (SOTTR 2018)
Legendary skin for Lara: Jonah Maiava
Slenderman.
Probably an original survivor.
Killer: Killer Clown from Outer Space
Survivors: Mike Tobacco, Debbie Stone
Sure we already have a clown in the game but he could be much more interesting than just throwing bottles around.
Killer weapon: Popcorn gun (shooting popcorn at survivors, mechanics would work something like Trickster's knives laceration rather than Huntress hatchets... but rather than just decay, survivors would need to search spot on a map where they would make a cotton candy and "cleanse" the laceration).
Special Ability: Like Dredge's nightfall, few times per game - killer can make a Balloon Dog who will bark and run across the map to search and track survivors.
Map: "The Circus" which is actually a giant UFO and is a indoor futuristic maze similar to Hawkins
I didn't really think about specific perks but there is so much that can be done and be lots of fun.
which clown specifically would you pick?
Mac is one of my dream survivors. Finish the movie, its worth
the most unique response ive seen yet
